Inexperienced bassist requires basic help

[andrewcel]

Hello - thank you in advance for any help!

 

A quick potted history - I started playing the bass just over two years ago and put a lot of time into it eventually getting myself in to a band who have just begun gigging. I bought a 6 string in Jan 23 and a Pod Go hoping to get myself proficient and then using the Pod Go for both bass and 6 string. Forward to today...we have gigs lined up, I have an Ashdown RM-C115T-500 EVO II Combo.

 

So I got started with the Pod Go last year, downloaded a lot of bass presets but I have to be honest I'm not yet sure what I'm doing. I understand how useful it is with a 6 string but I just need a bit of a point in the right direction...be it videos or guides or even a video call

 

I understand that not all PA systems can cope with bass frequencies so would be looking to set presets without cabs/amps to give me a selection of tones I could go through during gigs (song dependent) and learn how to make these myself. 

 

If there's anything else I need to know please do feel free to point it this way...I've learned to play the bass but I don't really understand some of the basics of how to set your pedals up etc

 

All help gratefully received!

 

Thanks
